[Verse I]
Dm             G
When I was a child

                 Dm              G
I didn't hear a single word you said

Dm                 G
The things I was afraid of

                 Dm                G
They were all confined beneath my bed
[Pre-Chorus]
Dm                       C
But the years have been long

                        Am           F
And you have taught me well to hide away

Dm                  G
The things that I believed in

                    F               G
You've taught me to call them all escapes
[Chorus]
Am    F
I know who you are now

Am    F
I know who you are

Am    F
I know who you are now
Dm G x2 [Verse II]
Dm               G
There before the threshold

                 F            G
I saw a brighter world beyond myself

Dm                G
And in my hour of weakness

                  Am             G
You were there to see my courage fail
[Pre-Chorus]
Dm                      C
For the years have been long

                       Am              F
And you have taught me well to sit and wait

Dm               G
Planning without acting

           F             G
Steadily becoming what I hate
[Chorus]
Am    F
I know who you are now

Am    F
I know who you are

Am    F
I know who you are now

Dm            G/B
I have always known you

                F                G
You have always been there in my mind

Dm             G/B
But now I understand you

                  F              G
And I will not be part of your designs
[Chorus]
Am    F
I know who I am now

Am    F
And all that you've made of me

Am    F
I know who you are now

Am    F
And I name you my enemy

C     Dm
I know who I am now

F
I know who I want to be

C     Dm
I want to be more than

F
This devil inside of me

C     Dm

F     G   F
Oooooooooh

C     Dm
Oooooooooh

F     G   F
Oooooooooh
